The IUPAC name of
Concept introduction:
The systematic naming of organic compound is given by
Rules for writing IUPAC name from structural formula are:
• First identify the longest carbon chain.
• The next step is to identify the groups attached to the longest chain.
• Identify the position, location, and number of the substituents bonded to the carbon chain.
• Use prefix di, tri, tetra if same type of substituents are present.
• Name the substituents in alphabetical order.
